 In honor of my new Wine & Cheese Pairing Done-For-You Party Kit, I thought it would be fun to share three of my favorite wine & cheese pairings with you!
PAIRING #1: Crémant & Comté Comté is a delectable cheese made from cow's milk in the French-Comté region of Eastern France (aka one of my favorite wine regions, Jura!) Now, part of me wanted to pair this cheese with a traditional Savagnin or Vin du Jura…but those are hard to come by. So I went with an equally delicious pairing: Crémant. The bubbles and nutty flavor in Crémant work as the perfect palate refresher to rich and nutty comté cheese. PAIRING #2: Syrah & Smoked Gouda Anyone else immediately think of the Amanda Byne's movie, She's the Man, whenever they hear “Gouda”? I hope it's not just me! Anyway, this cheese is one of my favorites and I absolutely love the smoked version of it when pairing with wine. This semi-soft cheese originated in the Netherlands and is actually pronounced “how-da” by the locals! As for the wine pairing, since Syrah can have a smokey flavor, it makes the perfect flavor match with smoked gouda. PAIRING #3: Tawny Port & Blue Cheese A lot of times when people think of pairing sweet wine with food they're immediately drawn to sweet foods, but there's another option! You can go with a contrasting pairing (aka an opposing flavor!) This pairing is an example of sweet and salty. The Port’s sweetness creates a pleasant combo with the blue cheese’s salty notes. There are lots of different types of blue cheese, ranging from mild funk to a whole lot of funk! My favorite is either Roquefort or Stilton. Now you might be thinking…why share these wine and cheese pairings for free? Don't you want me to buy the kit? But that's the thing!
